Robert, we're sorry that your experience didn't meet your expectations. We completely understand your frustration regarding your check-out and wanted to explain what happened. Our computer program only allows one computer to be open with a customer's file at a time, for security reasons. Your file was open on your service writer's computer as he was closing out your file when he received a phone call. He had begun working with another customer on the phone before you approached the desk and was unable to log out of your file during the call due to his active use of his computer during the phone call. Our assistant service manager attempted to use his computer momentarily to get out of your file, but was unable to do so.
While we tell our customers to plan for an hour for an oil change, sometimes we are unable to fulfill that promise due to unforeseen situations. In addition, part of that hour promise time includes the inputting time for the computer so as to make sure that all work is documented for warranty and service records. All vehicles are physically completed earlier than the computer work, but the appointment isn't completed until we are able to update all records, which is why we tell customers to estimate for an hour. Your appointment was scheduled for 12:30 and although you did arrive early, due to other customer's needs and appointments, we weren't able to work in your vehicle any earlier than scheduled. Your vehicle was due to be ready at 1:30 and the service writer was just finishing up your paperwork when the other customer's call came in. We do apologize that you weren't able to leave the dealership until 20 minutes after your promised delivery time and promise to strive to do better for you in the future. Hopefully, this clears up any confusion as to why and what happened during your appointment and that you will give us the opportunity to serve you again and show you what the normal Mike White Ford service experience is like. Your happiness is of the highest importance to us and we're sorry that we weren't able to meet expectations this time. As a token of good faith, we'd like to mail you a coupon for an additional car wash. Just reply to this email with your mailing address and if you'd prefer Squeaky's, Hippo, or Mister Car Wash and we'd be more than happy to get that in the mail to you! Thank you for choosing Mike White Ford!

Brought my 2019 Raptor in for a service and an oil leak coming from the drivers side of the engine. The oil had migrated down to the A-Arm to the running boards and sprayed all over the wheel wells and body. It was also leaking onto the surface of my garage. Before even attempting to listen to my explanation he promptly explained it was probably just “tire shine”. I NEVER use tire shine on my tires. To prove my point, I showed him that the passenger side didn’t display the obvious oil spray. Again, he stated it was just tire shine. Again, I explained I never use it. Called me back an hour later and said the truck was ready (including a full service). I asked about the oil leak and was AGAIN told it was just tire shine. At this point, why bother even explaining how ridiculous he sounded? Told me he could “throw it on the rack and I could look at it”. If I knew how to fix it, I sure as hell wouldn’t have brought it in to be fixed. After being told for the 4th time it was tire shine, I decided to leave and never return to Mike White. Tyler needs to take a class on customer service 101 and how to listen. I don’t have the time to waste coming back again and again. I’ll head to the Valley and give my money to another state before I’ll put up with this BS again.
